I agree with the point of the strip: listen to experts when they’re expounding on their area of expertise. But these statements, “a fine line between a genius and an idiot” and “A genius is just an idiot except at one or two activities.” sound like something an idiot would say. In fact they sound like something an anti-intellectual republican teabaggin’ idiot would say. But I’m no expert.

What’s with the exp(i*pi)=-1 thing? It’s the second time in a few days I see a reference to it in a comic when I already had forgotten all about it since university.
It’s a new trend to show “how smart I am”?

I can understand the “10 types of person” inside jokes, but this is no inside joke, just pure show off.
